The Non‐Professional Virtues of the Hospice Volunteer

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.

Who Am I When You're a Bot? Relational Identity and AI Companions

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Self‐conceptions provide a framework through which we can make sense of ourselves, interpret and navigate the world, plan our lives, and relate to others. Relational influences can greatly shape them, for instance, when others react to us or offer advice. What if this ‘other’ is not a human being, but an AI?
